Aw man, I dunno. But when it comes to electric, I'm perhaps overly
paranoid. Especially heavy loads, like a fridge and a stove. Me,
personally, I don't know if what you did is safe; but I get a bad case
of the heebie jeebies just thinking about a 240v feed line spliced in a
junction box - even if it was copper to copper. Copper to Aluminum just
scares me that much more.


The final connection at the stove/oven is just a junction box too and
is often a wire nut connection. I don't see any problem with what
he's done.

Like I said, I don't know if you have anything to worry about or not.
But I would advise that if you ever sell the house, to put things back
the way they were.......
